AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This sturdy wrought-iron pin is an authentic piece of old toolwork, presumably used as a rigging- or tether-pin for tying horses or anchoring tent lines. The square head was intended to be driven firmly into the ground with a hammer, after which the two forged rings served to attach rope or rein.
The object is fully hand-forged from a single piece of iron — head, shaft, and both rings form a seamless whole, characteristic of traditional smithing. The deep reddish-brown patina of rust confirms its age and authenticity.
A atmospheric item for lovers of old tools, rustic decoration, or industrial vintage style.
